About Philip Turner

I have a multidisciplinary, natural sciences background in research, with an extensive track record in plant sciences and the forest-based sector. Over the last decade my research interests have increasingly evolved to focus on fundamental research in biophysics and condensed matter, which link Quantum Field Theory and thermodynamics with macroscopic quantum effects such as super conductivity, quantum biology, and the self-assembly of biopolymers within the plant cell wall and more general plant growth. This work is leading to new insights into biological systems, which inform the assembly of both organic and inorganic matter and the future development of new materials.

Philip Turner Work Experience Details
  • Freelance
    Physicist
    Freelance Jul 2017 - Present
    Plymouth, United Kingdom
    My research is focused on the foundations of quantum mechanics and the interplay between quantum and dissipative systems in macroscopic quantum phenomena such as high temperature super conductivity, plant morphogenesis and cell wall formation. This work extends to understanding the fundamentals of assembly mechanisms at molecular, mesoscopic and macroscopic scales, which could potentially lead to the development of new, "bio-inspired" materials.
